Some of my favorite things to listen too are the interviews with authors on The John Batchelor Show. I probably will never have a chance to read all of these books so this provides a way to quickly get an idea about a broad variety of topics. This is a true story about resistance, science and the fight against tyranny. It is truly amazing to hear these stories and look back at the accomplishments of \u2018the greatest generation.\u2019<\/p>\n

You can follow that link to the podcast or go to The John Batchelor Show<\/a> website for more information. From their website:<\/p>\n

In the spring of 1940, the aspiring but unknown writer Albert Camus and budding scientist Jacques Monod were quietly pursuing ordinary, separate lives in Paris. After the German invasion and occupation of France, each joined the Resistance to help liberate the country from the Nazis and ascended to prominent, dangerous roles. After the war and through twists of circumstance, they became friends, and through their passionate determination and rare talent they emerged as leading voices of modern literature and biology, each receiving the Nobel Prize in their respective fields. <\/em><\/p>\n

Drawing upon a wealth of previously unpublished and unknown material gathered over several years of research, Brave Genius tells the story of how each man endured the most terrible episode of the 20th century and then blossomed into extraordinarily creative and engaged individuals. It is a story of the transformation of ordinary lives into exceptional lives by extraordinary events – of courage in the face of overwhelming adversity, the flowering of creative genius, deep friendship, and of profound concern for and insight into the human condition.<\/em><\/p>\n
